Never heard that things got darker by washing.
Normally they de-color over time, and if it is pure wool you have two ways to clean it. Either to bring it to a dry-cleaners store, as it was suggested to me while I bought the fabric for mine. Or you have a good washing machine with an excellent wool program and wool washing agent.
But maybe some of the experienced reenactors have a few tips for us.
And I also think we should open a new thread for this as it don't fit in the original topic.
